prepare soap and his condition keeps worsening.

three years. This the medical doctors who were treating him at Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital (KATH) said little Danso suffered injury
to his oral cavity, pharynx and the upper airways which if not treated may cause serious complications such as perforation and death.

Later in an interview, Dr. Manfred Takyi said Joy Industries Limited as a responsible corporate citizen strives to create a sustainable
and socially responsible business model that serves the interest of the communities they operate in.

requested. Said they believe the surgery of little Danso will commence in the shortest possible time to enable him live normal life after
